Description

PRIORITY

[0001] The present application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 61 / 504,387 filed Jul. 5, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0002] Diseases caused by different tumors are still major problems in medicine and human health. The combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy greatly improved the prognosis of cancer patients. Despite that this approach results frequently in a significant reduction of tumor mass, a small population of precursor tumor cells or cancer stem cells often survives and subsequently gives rise to a new population of tumor cells that leads to a relapse. Even if the main tumor is removed by surgical and / or other treatments minor amounts of circulating tumor cells may cause metastatic tumors in different areas of the body. Therefore, there exists a permanent need for alternative medicaments and methods of treatment which may be used alone or preferably be...
